Synopsis
When
I was fourteen years old, I killed for the first time. That day I
learned cruelty wasn’t only within the walls we had just
escaped. It hasn’t been easy growing up in the middle of a
war. A struggle to find shelter. Fighting to protect our bodies
against the corruption of the streets. Nobody cared about the street
kids who had to beg and steal to eat. We are the Portland Street
Kings – A family forged through loyalty not blood. To get through
this life of broken dreams alive, we’ve become hard, uncaring and
merciless. We do what must be done to keep our family safe, we will
harm those who stand against us. We have it all, feared and
respected by those on the streets. Then she collided into my world,
and with her came demons from my past, back to haunt us all.

Excerpt
“What
if I already have, brotha? What if she’s already dead?” Rex’s
grin is devilish, one I know all too well. He
got to her. I
push off him, hard, causing Rex to slump to the ground roughly. My
chest explodes and my whole world falls apart. I look around me at
the people staring, at the dust in the air, at the cars in the
distance. Piper. I
grab for my chest at the exact moment I know my heart plummets to my
stomach, as if I thought I could catch it first. My mind is
screaming at me to get to Piper to try to save her, but my panic is
holding me back. Laughing at me, taunting me, reminding me that I
actually thought I could let her go when really I can’t even bear
the thought of living in a world where she doesn’t exist. In a
blur, I hear Pace yelling that the home phone isn’t connecting. I
look to see Rex on the ground, laughing, almost cackling. In a
split second, the harsh world comes back into focus and I see
everything for what it is: a world where I never win, where I’ll
always be the underdog. I look to Rex and growl, "I told
you why I did it! Why your father had to die. He was a rapist, and
he deserved to
die. Now you've gone after my girl? I can't let you walk away from
this." I look down to him with what I'm sure are black eyes,
murder running through my veins. I feel it pumping through my blood
like worms sucking me dry. "If you’ve gone after her, if she’s
hurt, you better run," I growl. "You better run fucking
fast, because I'm coming for you. I'm coming for you and
your whole fucking
crew. By the end of the day, I'm gonna to be washing your blood from
my body and laughing. Laughing because your daddy still controls you
even after his death. You won't take off your fucking rose-colored
glasses and see him for what he was, a fucking sadistic asshole!"
I end on a roar.
